Pope Francis has been lauded over the last year for his comments on same-sex relationships (i.e.: his infamous: "who am I to judge?" quote), being named Person of the Year by the Advocate and Time magazine.
Activists may be congratulating the pontiff again as it was reported Wednesday that he’s called for a Vatican meeting to debate the Catholic Church’s stance on gay marriage, contraception and divorce.
The Los Angeles Times reports the religious meeting, or synod, will take place this October, under Pope Francis’ orders, where top Catholic Church officials plan to discuss some of the Church’s most controversial issues: same-sex relations, divorce and contraception. Full story here via Edge!
